Instructions

These are short devotional thoughts to accompany a daily Bible reading. The readings are arranged for a chronological reading of the scriptures. I am reading the Today's New International Version. However, it should work with any version. It is my prayer that it will encourage reading of God's word, and inculcating the teachings into daily living. May His richest blessings be with you!

June 10


   
1 Kings 5-6; 2 Chronicles 2-3
As Solomon sets out to build the temple, he does so with full knowledge that God does not dwell in temples made with human hands. However, he does see the temple as a suitable place to offer sacrifices to God, a good place to worship. The same is still true. God dwells in the temple of our hearts, His creation. However, we come together, at appointed times, in specified buildings, with other Christians, to praise and worship our Lord. Solomon recognized the temple as a holy place because of the activity that would take place there. Thus, he poured a lot of resources into the temple. How many resources are we putting into our temple? How much do we put into preparation for worship and praise to God?
